FreeBSD installing rutorrent and rtorrent

Looks like I had to create another thread because of no help. I have FreeBSD 9.0 installed on a Kimsufi 2G. I used the
Code:
wget --no-check-certificate -O autodl-setup http://sourceforge.net/projects/autodl-irssi/files/autodl-setup/download
sh autodl-setup
auto script from the rutorrent website to install. Well, the installation failed because of a conflict with
Code:
 libssl.so.6 and libcrypto.so.6
. That is as far I have got in this process. I'm stomped and don't know what to do next. So anybody mind helping a "idiot", out with this task.:stud
 
Nothing else is needed.

And I suggest you read the terms and conditions very carefully. It doesn't prohibit P2P specifically but they do not allow "illegal" filesharing.

Besides that what do I need to install a desktop on my server to use?

Your question doesn't make much sense.

What exactly are you trying to archive?

I would like to install a desktop on my server. i.e. Gnome. What process of action I have to do to achieve this.

Is your first language English or something else? The handbook is available in other languages.

Chapter 6 The X Window System
6.7 Desktop Environments

If you go with Gnome I'd suggest using x11/gnome2-lite. It contains enough for a nice desktop but doesn't include all the bells and whistles (you can install those later on anyway). I'm personally more fond of x11-wm/xfce4.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough for what I was seeking help. Is there a diffrence in the installation of a desktop on a server vs a desktop on your home computer? I though the installation was diffrent. I know how to install the desktop. Since I'm installing in a diffrent enviroment. I assume that maybe there is something diffrent I have to do. Like I said I'm a "idiot" doing this right now. Not ashamed of it that's how it's when your learning.

No.

Why would it?

The only real difference between a desktop and a server is how you use them. That said there are loads of people (me included) that don't install anything graphical on a server at all.
 
I was just wondering why you thought there was a difference ;)
 
Thanks part of my problem is the lack of symlink

ln -s /lib/libssl.so.7 libssl.so.6
ln -s /lib/libcrypto.so.7 libcrypto.so.6

I will try again and post the output errors or if I fix.

The version numbers are there for a reason: It means there's an incompatibility in the library. So this is *not* a recommended "solution" as it may introduce strange behavior, crashes, etc.

Installing rTorrent is simple and can be done through ports, just make sure you select the xmlrpc option (IIRC it's off by default). Next install either Apache or ligthttp and enable the SCGI features (As described by a host of online articles/HOWTO's), and finally just fetch & extract the ruTorrent package in your wwwroot.

I have no idea how all of this relates to the file you're trying to download in your OP, as this appears to be a plugin for irssi (...?)
